Oh wellies they are wonderful, oh wellies they are swell 
'Cause they keep out the water and they keep in the smell 
And when you're sitting in a room you can always tell 
When some bugger takes off his wellies 

If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be 
You'd be in the hospital or infirmary 
'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy 
If you didn't have your feet in your wellies 

Oh and when you're out walking in the country with a bird 
And you're strolling over fields just like a farmer's herd 
And somebody shouts, "Keep off the grass" and you think how absurd 
and SQUELCH you find why farmers all wear wellies 

If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be 
You'd be in the hospital or infirmary 
'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy 
If you didn't have your feet in your wellies 

There's fishermen and firemen, there's farmers and all 
Men out digging ditches and working in the snow 
This country it would grind to a halt and not a thing would grow 
If it wasn't for the workers in their wellies 

If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be 
You'd be in the hospital or infirmary 
'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy 
If you didn't have you're feet in your wellies 

Oh Edward Heath and Wilson they haven't made a hit 
They're ruining this country more than just a bit 
If they keep on the way they're going we'll all be in the (shhhhh) 
So you'd better get your feet in your wellies 

If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be 
You'd be in the hospital or infirmary 
'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy 
If you didn't have you're feet in your wellies
